So, online dating...Is it the new dating norm, or some gateway to sincere desperation for twenty-and thirtysomethings?
Some friends at work have recognized that I am the only single person in my department- of 12-13 people. Fun. So I have been strongly encouraged to give online dating a go.
Feels weird, though. I just don't consider myself on 'online dating type'. I realize it works for some people, some of whom I know personally. But for me? I just don't know. I'm such a social person- though, for some reason or another, I seem to be a social failure when it comes to the dating scene. So who knows.
Just throwing out the idea. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
I'll always be your date, just as long as there is no funny business.
I've tried it and I hate it. I want to believe, and I know people who do and for whom it works. Give it a whirl. Okcupid and plentyoffish.com are free, and I have heard success stories. Worst case scenario: a guy buys you dinner and it ends awkwardly. I just like to consider it good practice. ;-)
